ArtHistoryClosed · Opens 10amFrom £1700Roppongi Station (Toei Oedo Line, Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line)

Fondato nel 1961 all’insegna del tema «L’arte nella vita», Suntory Museum of Art conserva circa 3.000 opere d’arte giapponese – oggetti laccati, ceramiche, vetri, tessuti tinti e dipinti – tra cui un Tesoro nazionale e numerose Proprietà culturali importanti e Opere d’arte importanti. Dal 2007 occupa uno spazio progettato da Kengo Kuma al terzo piano di Tokyo Midtown Galleria, a Roppongi, dopo aver avuto sede in precedenza a Marunouchi e Akasaka; nel 2020 ha riaperto dopo un intervento di ristrutturazione. Anziché proporre un allestimento permanente, il museo presenta un programma a rotazione di mostre temporanee tematiche, con opere provenienti dalle proprie collezioni e da prestiti esterni.
